The ascent from the Muttseehütte to the summit of Hausstock goes through scree via the Hintersulzlücke. We didn’t choose the climbing route along the ridge, but a variation from the southwest onto the Ruchi over rock and snow, where we eventually had to use crampons. After traversing north below the summit, at 3,000 m, comes the key section, the so-called “Furggel”, an exposed narrow ridge. On this section, which is secured with fixed ropes, one has to balance over abysses several hundred metres deep on both sides. A short climb is followed on the other side by a fairly level stretch until the final ascent on the summit ridge, where the highlight of our two-day mountain tour to the Hausstock is finally reached. From the freestanding summit, you can enjoy magnificent views.
